In case, you are doing a day hike with kids, these are the some additions

□ Additional snacks

Admittedly, this is usually the heaviest portion of packs when hiking with kids (besides water), but a very important element that we do not recommend skimping on. Some suggestions for go-to snacks on a soulful hike include Dried fruit bars, fruit snacks, Easy to peel oranges, sandwiches, Granola bars or protein bars, Cheese sticks, Special treats for bribes like – gummy bears, Skittles, or lollipops, Loaded trail mix with nuts and chocolate

 

□ Extra water

Water is life! Be sure to bring plenty of water when hiking with kids as dehydration can be serious and water helps to maintain everyone’s energy levels. 

□ Wet wipes

These come in handy for trailside potty breaks, as well as for cleaning up peanut butter and jelly hands and faces.

□ Tissues

A small pack of tissues is light and takes no space, so worth bringing for trailside sniffles or noses.
